Test du Mova V70 Ultra : Enfin un robot aspirateur laveur qui nettoie les moindres recoins

After a very convincing V50 Ultra Complete, Mova, a spin-off brand from Dreame, is back with the V70 Ultra Complete, its new premium flagship. This model features astronomical suction power, a novel extendable mop, a cyclonic bagless station, and 100 °C washing capability. Could this be the new king of floor cleaning? Here’s our review after several days of intensive testing.

Introduced at CES 2026, the Mova V70 Ultra Complete has been available since May 2026 and brings interesting innovations to the robot vacuum market. It features an extendable mop that reaches up to 134° and extends up to 16 cm, as well as a side brush that reaches up to 12 cm. This innovation allows for deeper cleaning, especially in corners, around furniture legs, and along kitchen plinths which are often hard to reach.

The station also innovates by completely eliminating the dust bag, replacing it with a bagless tank system, similar to what the Ecovacs Deebot X11 OmniCyclone offers, the first model to popularize this bagless system.

However, Mova is not the first to eliminate the dust bag: Ecovacs already offered this system on its Deebot X11 OmniCyclone in 2025. The brand promises up to 100 days of autonomy between interventions on the tank, supposedly saving about 150 euros per year on disposable bags.

The model also includes everything one would expect from a premium model, such as a suction power of 40,000 Pa, 100 °C mop washing, a retractable LiDAR dome to fit under low furniture, and the ability to cross thresholds up to 9 cm high.

We wanted to verify if this engineering feat translates into a successful everyday experience.

Design That Contrasts With Specifications

From an aesthetic point of view, the Mova V70 Ultra’s station does not really assert its high-end identity, at least not the station. Indeed, its appearance closely resembles that of the V50 Ultra. It features a white station with unflattering plastics, which truly contrasts with the product’s positioning.

Underneath its top panel, it houses two massive tanks: 4.5 liters for clean water and 4 liters for wastewater, while a removable panel with a brushed metal imitation hides the double detergent reservoir and the EcoCyclone tank. The lower part accommodates the robot and handles the maintenance of the mops, thanks to a 40° inclined washing board paired with targeted jets.

The robot’s design is more refined, with glossy white plastics and fairly good assemblies. The finishes are good and the body adjustments inspire confidence.

On top, Mova reuses the previous generation’s retractable LiDAR turret, allowing it to lower flush with the chassis, bringing the total height of the device under the 9 cm mark. Underneath the device, the machinery is dense. It features the MaxiReachX system, capable of physically extending the right rotating mop up to 16 cm outward, as well as shifting the side brush up to 12 cm to reach debris and dirt at the bottom of right angles. For the main suction unit, Mova opts for a dual rubber brush, a formidable technical choice for grinding and guiding dirt without hair wrapping around the axes.

This is the Complete version, so the V70 Ultra comes with several brushes, replacement filters, mop pads, as well as a bottle of standard detergent and another specifically for households with pets.

One of the Best Apps on the Market

Pairing with the Mova app is done by presenting the robot with the QR code displayed on your smartphone. Then, mapping is carried out in a few minutes and in disconcerting silence. Thanks to its sensors, the robot can automatically recognize the type of room, thus distinguishing the living room from the kitchen and bathrooms. It included my terrace in the map even though the glass doors were closed, but it correctly named it “Balcony.”

Once the mapping is finished, you can edit it to merge, separate, or rename rooms, add forbidden zones, and even adjust the flooring, add furniture, carpets, or curtains on the map, and even customize the cleaning sequence and location of thresholds to cross.

The home page displays the map and the latest usage statistics. From this screen, you can initiate a cleaning cycle, whether it be complete, by room, or by area. Like most robot vacuums, you can adjust the cleaning settings to vacuum and wash floors, or do only one or the other or one then the other. Similarly, the app lets you adjust suction power, mop moisture, and robot speed, allowing for more or less thorough cleaning. Of course, these settings can be customized according to the rooms to be cleaned. The Mova V70 Ultra also features the CleanGenius mode, common on Dreame and Mova robots. This mode automatically adjusts the cleaning settings, depending on the type of room and the level of dirt.

The app also shines with its depth of customization, sometimes flirting with being overly complex as the menus are dense. You can notably customize the quantity and temperature of the washing and drying water for the mops, activate or not the drying of the dust bin to avoid bad odors, adjust the frequency of emptying the dust bin and the compression of hair and fur, as well as the detergent settings. You can, for example, choose to wash the floors or mops with detergent, and indicate which type of detergent is in which compartment.

The app also allows you to adjust the cleaning strategy along the walls by maximizing the mechanical extension of the articulated arm at each cycle or by letting the algorithm judge its relevance. Similarly, you can control the sensitivity to obstacles, the insistence in the presence of difficult stains or significant dust, as well as the level of risk that the LiDAR dome can take.

Rug management is just as precise, with the option to activate an automatic suction boost while lifting the wet mops to avoid wetting the fibers, to simply bypass the area, or to return to the station to magnetically detach the washing pads before tackling the carpet. It’s ultra-complete and particularly reassuring to use, even if you can easily spend 10 minutes browsing through all the settings. Similarly, you can schedule a recharge during off-peak hours, slightly reducing the impact of recharging on your electricity bill.

The app also allows you to activate a mode dedicated to households with pets, allowing you to take pictures of your quadruped during cleaning, or to search for it thanks to the robot’s onboard camera.

Finally, let’s end with the native integrations with Google Assistant and Alexa voice assistants, but also the standard integration of an onboard assistant “Hey Mova,” very practical for daily use so you don’t have to pull out your smartphone every time you need to launch the robot.

Impressive Cleaning

On paper, the Mova V70 Ultra impresses with its suction power of 40,000 Pa and its extendable brushes capable of dislodging dirt in the tightest corners, at least on paper.

On the ground, the robot has no difficulty with crumbs, dust, and small debris on hard floors. It also cleans dirt in the tile joints, leaving the floors clean after its passage, including in the tile joints. The side brush also performs miracles and really removes dirt in angles and corners, including in places that are difficult to access. For example, crumbs and dust from salt deposited along kitchen plinths were completely vacuumed, where many other models have a lot of difficulty.

On carpets, the robot automatically increases its cleaning power and lifts or removes its mop pads. Thanks to the dual rubber brush combined with Herculean suction power, the V70 vacuums the fibers deeply and manages to rid carpets of embedded dirt, especially since it can perform a cross pass in the textile.

Floor washing relies on two circular pads spinning at 300 rpm, exerting a constant pressure of 15 N on the floor. The robot can also wash its mops with boiling water, and even clean the floors with hot water, while automatically adding the detergent of your choice. This can be classic detergent for tiles, and specific parquet product in rooms with wooden floors. It can even detect stubborn stains and perform a more intensive pass to better clean them, at least on paper.

On a daily basis, the robot performs very well on most classic stains, such as footsteps, dirt, etc. On fresh stains of coffee, mud or fruit juice, the cleaning is impeccable from the first iteration. The MaxiReachX system is spectacular to observe: the side brush deploys to sweep around the legs of a piece of furniture, scrubs flush with the plinth, and even cleans under the leaves of a glass door, which we hadn’t seen until now.

However, not everything is perfect. During our tests on very ingrained and dried stains from the night before, such as sticky soda, coffee splashes, and dried tomato sauce, the robot was sometimes a bit too cautious. Its optical dirt sensor tends to assimilate a large dried puddle to dust, thus forcing intensive suction, on an area that needed intensive washing. Conversely, it was content with a simple pass on a fresh ketchup stain, but still managed to remove it after a simple pass.

For dried coffee, a single pass in CleanGenius mode was not enough to get rid of it, but a manually launched cleaning with intensive settings and a cross pass was able to erase it without difficulty. This confirms that the CleanGenius mode is sufficient for moderately dirty floors, but a manual configuration is often more effective for particularly dirty floors.

Despite this plethora of power, the V70 Ultra operates at a very contained noise level, producing just 65 dB. It’s not very disturbing in everyday life, even if the mops tend to produce a fairly audible high-pitched noise.

In terms of autonomy, the V70 Ultra lasts about 2 hours and 15 minutes on a single charge, which is more than enough for most households. Of course, the robot can automatically return to recharge when the battery percentage weakens, before resuming work autonomously. However, unlike the very latest competing models, the V70 Ultra does not have a boosted recharge function during mop washing.

Total Freedom of Movement

The robot’s spatial navigation is particularly reliable. The V70 Ultra plans its trajectories perfectly, first outlining the areas before gridding them, without unnecessarily passing over the same spot and without getting lost. Its LiDAR can also lower as it approaches low furniture, bringing the height of the device under 9 cm to pass underneath.

Obstacle detection is entrusted to two cameras at the front, assisted by an automatic auxiliary LED for night use. It detects obstacles of all sizes without difficulty, whether they are small cables, shoes, toys, furniture legs, or animals.

Finally, the StepMaster 2.0 system allows it to cross thick door thresholds or small indoor steps thanks to small retractable feet that literally lift the robot’s chassis, allowing it to cross obstacles up to 9 cm high.

Ultra-Simple and Quick Maintenance

As autonomous as a robot vacuum may be, manual maintenance remains essential. Fortunately, the Omni station of the V70 Ultra takes care of most of the thankless tasks.

Each time it returns to the base (and during the cycle if necessary), the mops are cleaned with hot water, up to 100 °C. The water is propelled through nozzles and jets oriented at a 40° angle, which allows injecting the thermal flow directly into the heart of the rotating fibers to dislodge impurities, rather than simply wetting the surface.

This high temperature is ideal for dissolving grease and eliminating bacteria accumulated on the pads. Once the cleaning is finished, the station initiates automatic hot air drying, avoiding the odors of stagnant moisture. Emptying the dust is also particularly simple, the station sucking the contents of the robot’s bin with the noise of an airplane turbine for a few seconds.

For you, maintenance is limited to emptying the dirty water tank and filling the clean water tank. These can easily be transported thanks to the integrated handles, and their large capacity avoids having to handle them too often. The dust bin can be removed to be emptied into the trash, offering a more sustainable approach, although it must be cleaned from time to time.

To avoid contortions, a specific mode drastically simplifies the cleaning of the washing board. With a simple command, the robot automatically exits the station to completely free up access to the bottom of the garage. The base then injects a little clean water to allow you to dislodge the last deposits of dirt, before purging and instantly reaspirating the soiled water towards the upper collector. A quick effortless sponge wipe, and it’s done.

For the robot, changing the filter takes just a few seconds, by removing the dust bin, accessible from the top of the robot. Finally, the anti-tangle design of the main brush limits the accumulation of pet hair and human hair, simplifying daily maintenance.

Price and Availability

The Mova V70 Ultra Complete is officially sold for 1,399 euros, a price slightly lower than high-end models from the competition.

In terms of direct competition, the Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete (Mova’s parent company) plays in the same league with equivalent suction and an extendable mop, just like the Roborock Saros 20, but with more modest extension ranges, from 3 to 8 cm, where the V70 claims 16 cm.

However, it benefits from a promotional price of 1,199 euros at the time of writing at Amazon, Boulanger, Cdiscount, and Fnac Darty.
